Kigelia Tented Camp is a new and exclusive fully tented luxury camp situated on the Ifuguru Sand River and near to both the Mwagusi and Greater Ruaha Rivers in Ruaha National Park. The camp is small and intimate and is still evolving in order to meet the needs of its guests.
The camp has 6 very spacious double tents all beautifully and luxuriously appointed in both comfort and style, using locally crafted furniture and stylish furnishings. All have en-suites with flushing toilet and washbasin and each has its own open air bucket shower for an authentic African experience.
Meals are served in the dining area following a sundowner around the camp fire on the edge of the river bank. Food is excellent using fresh produce and local ingredients whenever possible. A good selection of International wines is also available at mealtimes. Depending on the activity you choose for the day, breakfast can be served in camp or out in the bush. [cont].

Guided walking safaris are also available, and a programme of activities can be designed around your own particular interests, experience and desires.

The luxurious 4 wheel drive vehicles used for the game drives complete with thick padded armrests, seats and back rests and a picnic hamper on board – absolute luxury on a game drive.
Guest Comments:
This five-star camp only opened in October 2008 but I'm sure it'll be one of Tanzania's most talked about camps.
With just 6 tents, it provides a far more personal alternative to other properties in the park. It has a most luxurious feel - created via the camp's delightful decor, layout, attentive staff and general ambience.
I can't wait to go back.
